It has nothing to do with the current Administration or even the US. Local pollution is everywhere, globally. Continuous habitat and coastal buffer areas have been disappearing for many decades. I do plenty to address local pollution in my area, so get bent "Rick".
But it does in reality. The only reason that "global warming" is being "addressed" is because there is a monetary reward in implementing "solutions" (carbon credits). It is not a coincidence that carbon credit schemes were implemented as soon a AGW was identified and became mainstream. There is no such incentive for addressing local pollution. If anything, solving local pollution has a financial disincentive. Global warming isn't going to kill you or your children, but local pollution might.
Because we are ignoring the real danger in the chase for solving climate change via carbon credit schemes: local pollution. Local pollution is a major problem that we aren't addressing. Our streams and lakes are polluted. Continuous habitat is being lost. These have an immediate effect on us in the short and long term. We are ignoring this and spending time and money on worrying if the sea levels will flood Manhattan. Meanwhile loss of buffer habitat on the coastlines is causing flooding that we see TODAY.
Exactly. It will take an infinite amount of time to write software to perfection. Everyone here is bitching about it, but what is your alternative? Get a grip people, suck it up or do without software and go back to pen and paper.
No. Companies like Google WISH people wanted voice recognition. It is another data point they can collect and track. Voice recognition is like VR: a technology that no one wants.
I am astonished that people actually bought security software from a Russian company in the first place. They could be 100% honest, but who knows? Their software is completely closed source. Why are you trusting your data to closed source software company?

You will see real change when Al Gore gives up his private jet and three vacation homes.
The credits had an expiration date of 800,000 years and just need to be renewed. Problem solved.
"Their work revealed that the plane had flown into the remote southern Indian Ocean. They didn't know where exactly."
Amazing stuff.

LOL. "maker types". You are so 2015. Let me guess, you have a fixie bike too?
I don't know what Fark is, but I also know we aren't going to Mars either. Sorry about that!
3D Printers and then VR and then AI. Hyped technologies which completely failed in real life.
Ads frequently contain malware. You are stupid if you allow it. Adblocking isn't "cool", it is necessary.
I don't get it. Why would you NOT block ads? They frequently maintain malware. Business models are not my problem.
All of them? I don't get it. I personally use a HOSTS file blocker produced from a genius called APK. Ever heard of him?
It is 2017 people. Who is still viewing Youtube without an adblocker???
Public SERVICE Announcement. Use Bing.
Seattle has 9600 baud now?

Some of us earn $50,000 a year in IT in Silicon Valley. We aren't all millionaires here.
...it would only improve the city.
I can trust Open Source. I can't trust some company selling some closed source software where I have no idea what they are doing with my data.

I guarantee the roof leaked though.
He added "But thats a real good idea! Thanks!"
You are kidding right? Of course it is "illegal". Who cares if it is "illegal" or not. The US didn't in 1776!
